President: Diane Turney (539-8386)

Secretary: Karen Buxton (375-3140)
Treasurer: Angie Rhyne (375-4020)

Jr. Pool Manager: Kellie Jenkins (375-9070)
Pool Opening Date – the Pool will open on Saturday May 23, 2009 at 1:00 PM.
Opening Potluck – we will hold our season opening potluck on Saturday, June 6th at 5:30 PM. Please mark your calendars and plan to attend. The potlucks are a fun, relaxing way to meet fellow members.
Keys – we replace the gate locks each year. In an effort to conserve resources, we are requiring members to return last year’s pool keys or be accessed a $5.00 replacement fee. Keys will be distributed only to Members in good standing.
Keys are available for pickup at the pool on May 9th and 16th from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM (noon), or on Saturday May 23rd from 1:00 - 3:00 PM. Alternative arrangements to pick up keys may be made by contacting Karen Buxton.
When picking up keys, members will be asked to sign a new release form to update their membership.
Dues – this year’s dues are $325. The Board did not wish to raise dues; however, increased costs have made it necessary. The broken black irrigation pipe that runs underneath the parking lot must be repaired and we must install special grate covers and an automatic pump shut-off valve to comply with new federal regulations. The new grate covers and shut-off valve must be installed before the pool can be opened. With an aging pool, we will begin to see more items that require repair or replacement. We tried to make the budget as tight as we could yet cover the expenses. Please be aware that a change was made in the membership dues schedule for late fees. Membership dues must be paid by June 1, 2009 to avoid incurring a late fee.
Lifeguards and Pool Openers Wanted – Northview is currently hiring lifeguards and pool openers. Members and their families are encouraged to apply. Lifeguards must be 16 or older and pool openers 14 or older to be considered for positions.
Work Credits – opportunities exist for members in good standing to earn one $75.00 work credit. If you are interested, please contact Ardis Rukavina by May 1, 2009.
Member Handbooks – to save money and trees, members will receive a copy of the current membership handbook by e-mail. Members, who do not have email, may request a printed copy.
New Party Rules – parties will now require a $50 non-refundable fee to cover the cost associated with hiring a lifeguard. A refundable damage deposit of $100 is also required. The gazebo is available to use for all parties.
Memberships Available –there are 10 memberships available for purchase. If you know of a family on your street who may be interested in joining our pool, please contact Karen Buxton. Memberships will sell for $400, which includes this season’s dues.
Questions -- if you have any questions or concerns regarding the pool or suggestions for improving the pool operations, please feel free to contact any of the pool board officers.
